These decisions are all about the WHY.
The 1099 vs employee isn't really relevant to your termination. Being reclassified allowed your 1099 to become wages for purposes of establishing a base period. That's over.
Then there is the separation and the late appeal. That's TWO issues.
The ALJ at the hearing was allowed to say that you had good cause to be late in filing, but the board of review is just as free to say that your appeal was late and that you didn't have good cause. My question is: did the board of review say that you filed late? If so, then the original adjudicator decision kicks in and it doesn't matter anymore that that the ALJ said you were or weren't late to work because in effect the board is saying that your appeal hearing shouldn't have even taken place because you were late filing the appeal and it shouldn't have been heard on the merits anymore.
Then did the board say that your termination wasn't for misconduct or did they reverse that too? The idea that as a 1099 you came and went as you pleased doesn't change anything. You can be an employee with a loose schedule, fired for tardies or attendance, and if you can show that you had no set schedule at work, you can still get UI benefits. You managed to do this already. You weren't fired a reason that only an employee can get fired for.
Then you have this medical stuff. It could be that you might not be eligible anyway because of able and available issues.
There is NO new evidence allowed as you go further in the appeal process except in some really narrow circumstances, and I'm not reading anything in your story that makes me think you have a reason to be allowed that option.
As to the Supreme court that was mentioned, maybe CT is like NY, and they call what anyone else calls the superior court, the supreme court, but it's really the next step on the appeal ladder.
